Downloading

I have had to erase my hard drive and reinstall the operating system, etc. Where can I download a NWE version 2.1 - which I have hitherto been using?

Underlining

The two fonts which I seem to use most often are Times New Roman and Arial. When I underline words in Times New Roman a small space separates the underline and the characters. This, I have always assumed, is the generally accepted layout and is attractive looking. With Arial, however, the underline ...

Printing - Blank Page

Thanks for your advice, ssampler.
Like so many things, once you have been shown how to do it, it seems rather obvious!

Printing - Blank Page

I have edited a document which originally required two pages. As a result of my editing it now fills only one page.
How do I cancel the second, blank page? My printer wants to print two pages and I have to reset "Page Setup" to prevent this, which is inconvenient.

Template (Stationary) Documents

Is there anywhere I can obtain "ready-made" templates for envelopes, personal and business correspondence, resumés, etc.? Some word processors include this in their application but I guess NWE doesn't.

Actually, my point is that normally I can access the character pallette in the two ways you describe when I am using other applications (e.g., TextEdit, etc).
But when I am in NWE (only) the menu item is not included in the Edit menu nor does the"international" icon appear in the menu bar.

Mac Character Pallette

When I launch NWE the icon in the menu bar which opens the Mac OS character pallette disappears. I thought that I might locate the Mac pallette under the Edit menu item but it is not there.
I am probably overlooking the obvious answer but can someone please help?

Saving a Document

Thanks for the info. Actually, I am using version 2.1.1. I am glad that I didn’t update to 2.1.2 as I presume that I would have trouble saving changes to all the documents hitherto created. Have the Nisus folks acknowledged this problem and indicated when a fix is coming?

Saving a Document

When I make a change to an existing document (i.e., previously saved) and then click the button to close it, a window opens showing it as untitled and asking where it should be saved, etc. Thus I finish up with two versions, the original (before the changes) and the new, changed version. What’s happ...

Page Numbering

Obviously, from the tenor of the posts this should be dead easy - so easy, in fact, that it wasn’t necessary to include a reference to it in the “Manual”. However, with the various amendments to the original reply and other comments that followed I have got into a tangle. I am using v. 2.1.1. I have...

Page numbering.

Thanks for your patience. I have followed your instructions carefully (several attempts) but finish up with all the pages in the “section” with the same starting number. It doesn’t appear to be possible to “manually” enter the appropriate number in the header on each page, which would otherwise be a...

Page numbering.

I have tried this but nothing happens. I am not sure what you mean by the “beginning” of the section but I have assumed that you mean that the cursor be placed in the header. Anyway, I have tried that and also placed the cursor below the header (is this the “beginning”?) but to no effect. Is it poss...

Page numbering.

Thanks for the tip. However, I have already created the document, which consists of a fly-sheet, index and preface (to be numbered using Roman numerals), followed by many pages of text. Surely it is possible to specify on which page the auto-numbering starts? I thought that this was a standard featu...

Page numbering

I can’t figure out how to apply automatic page numbering to a document where I want to number the second page as “1”. The third page as “2” and so on. If I follow the procedure outlined in the “manual” the sequence automatically starts from the first page. I cannot apparently do the job by typing in...

Thanks, Anne, for the info.
